'I hate mods, I hate France and I hate reading but I still loved this book.' -- Lee Mack, comedian 'A La Mod is everything its author is: immaculately turned out, sharp and consistently hilarious.' -- Mark Billingham, best-selling author 'Charming, witty, a brilliant read.' -- Sarah Millican, comedian 'C'est Mod-nifique.' -- Marcus Brigstocke, comedian 'Has all the angry wit of John Cleese in a too tight suit... a farce to be reckoned with!' -- Michael Smiley, actor 'There are a great many comedians who think that they can also write books, myself included, but very few who can rival Ian Moore's immediate warmth and skill with language. This is a book that will provide laughs of recognition from those with young children of their own and of intrigue from singletons like myself. I finished it feeling part of the family and can't wait to find out what happens to us next!' -- Jon Richardson, comedian and author 'Take one life-long mod and chuck him into rural France, complete with pond-dredging, chutney-making, child-rearing and a horse with VD. The result is funny, revealing and oddly touching. Paul Weller meets A Year in Provence...' -- Miranda Sawyer, journalist and broadcaster 'Ian Moore is a brilliantly funny writer and that's all there is to it.' -- Annabel Giles, author and broadcaster 'A very funny, charming and honest account of a family's journey by one of my favourite comedians.' -- Shappi Khorsandi, comedian 'I've seen Ian Moore on the stage and I'm happy to report that he's just as good on the page. A light-hearted and wry look at life for the Moore family in the Loire Valley, with a passing and amusing nod to Durrell's My Family and Other Animals.' -- Nick Hewer, broadcaster 'Plunges you straight in to Ian Moore's strange, endearingly funny world. Zips along with nippy energy, although there are pages you have to read twice they make you laugh so much.' -- Annie Caulfield, writer and broadcaster 'A warm and witty journey into a foreign land. Like much of the produce in the French village where the Moore family shops, the humour is organic.' -- Martin Kelner, journalist 'If you are looking for stylish laugh, you need look no l further than A La Mod.' -- Mark Baxter, co-author of An A-Z of Mod 'Wonderfully funny; the sharpest, best-dressed most sardonic Englishman to land on French soil and make the absurd hysterical - this book will serve both as a warning and a temptation to anyone pining for a French idyll.' -- Janey Godley, author and comedian 'A hilarious and heart-warming tale exploring the reality of a very English man abroad. Moore's writing is honest, immensely readable and laugh-out-loud funny.' -- Dr Katy Shaw, author and academic 'Witty, insightful and wonderfully written, I couldn't put it down.' -- Katharine Merry, Olympic Medallist and Broadcaster
